Fast delivery, stronger specifications

By Jesse Sanchez. 

FlashCo’s national plant network and upcoming edge metal updates were key topics at IIBEC 2026. 

At International Institute of Building Enclosure Consultants (IIBEC) 2026, FlashCo emphasized how fast delivery, specification support and new product development are shaping its work with roofers, architects, and consultants. Speaking on The Coffee Shops™ soundstage, sponsored by Western Colloid, Rob Drew, Marketing Manager for FlashCo, described the company’s national footprint, specification support, product development, and focus on helping contractors finish projects efficiently. 

FlashCo’s network of ten plants allows the company to ship standard and custom products in one to three days, including custom scuppers, vents, drains and edge metal. For contractors nearing the end of a project, that speed can make a meaningful difference. Rob said FlashCo understands that roofers are focused on completing the job and moving efficiently to the next one, and the company aims to support that process by delivering ready-to-install products quickly. 

The conversation also touched on why the International Institute of Building Enclosure Consultants (IIBEC) show is important for FlashCo. Rob noted that specifications are a key part of the company’s presence, particularly when architects and consultants are involved early in the project. Although FlashCo products are often installed near the end of a job, he said being part of the conversation from the beginning helps ensure those details are addressed before they affect the project's timeline. 

FlashCo has also made updates to its edge metal offerings. “We totally revamped our edge metal, ES1 especially,” Rob said. The company has added new website information with specifications and related resources for edge metal use on projects. He also shared that FlashCo is working on new products for data centers, including a waterproofing-focused solution for managing cables.
